Instructions for Tangy & Spicy Pineapple Chutney Recipe | Quick & Easy Homemade Pineapple Chutney

To begin baking the Tangy & Spicy Chunky Pineapple Chutney Recipe, start by peeling and finely chopping ripe pineapple and keep them aside. Prep all the remaining ingredients and keep aside.

Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat. Add mustard cumin seeds, ginger, green chillies and cinnamon stick. Allow them to splutter and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Add the pineapple chunks to the pan and stir well. Sprinkle salt and cover the pan. Allow the pineapple to cook for 5 to10 minutes on medium heat allowing the pineapple to completely soften and cooked. If required sprinkle a few tablespoons of water.

Once the pineapple is cooked, add the turmeric powder, cumin powder, red chili powder, and sugar. Stir to coat the pineapple in the spices. Squeeze in the lemon juice. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.

Reduce the heat to low and let the pineapple chutney simmer for 10-12 minutes, allowing the pineapple to absorb the flavors and the chutney to thicken. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more salt, chili or sugar as desired.

Once the Pineapple chutney reaches a thick, jam-like consistency, turn off the heat.

Serve the Tangy & Spicy Chunky Pineapple Chutney with parathas, dosas, or as a side to any Indian meal.
